QCharts is a LOT better than any data feed using Realtick... I 3 data feeds.... One via satellite, one via a T1 line, and and QCharts is via the internet.... And in a fast moving market, QCharts is faster than the other 2.... During normal market hours, QCharts is just a fraction of a second slower....

Also, QCharts doesn't require as much overhead as RealTick, and the program itself is much cleaner. However, Realtick does do a few things that QCharts doesn't do... For instance, I would like to see QCharts have the ability to only display chart data in a specified time period, and scale all data to fit within the current window. If they could do this, it would improve it dramatically.

Doesn't QChart's lack of integrated order entry (as in Real Tick 3)
make it unfair to compare QCharts vs RT3? Are most people here who
use Qcharts using a browser-based broker or high-speed daytrading
order entry?

It's frustrating to have great real-time quote/chart delivery
and a browser-based broker that burns away all the precious time
you gained having a product like QCharts.
